The time has come!! This book series by Cixin Liu is so high concept scifi that we just can't answer all the science questions. But I love it all.

** Quick note: I had to edit out the section about the Sophons! My bad, I used too much show footage so I had to clip it out after. Sincere apologies. **

The show didn't really do the work to delve into the physics, it gave the cursory overview but never sat with any of it for very long. This leads it to have a very different feeling and it kind of loses some of the isolation and desolation that you feel wiht the books. But overall it's a good adaptation for a global audience. If you want something a bit more true to the oringinal material then I recommened checking out the Tencent Production on Amazon Prime.
